    In today's United States Supreme Court orders, King's petition for a writ of certiorari and motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis was DENIED. This was an appeal from the Georgia Supreme Court's denial of his habeas petition.

    "There is a point in the history of a society when it becomes so pathologically soft and tender that among other things it sides even with those who harm it, criminals, and does this quite seriously and honestly. Punishing somehow seems unfair to it, and it is certain that imagining ‘punishment’ and ‘being supposed to punish’ hurts it, arouses fear in it." Friedrich Nietzsche

    On June 22, 2020, King’s motion to alter judgement was denied. All previously granted COAs are now denied.
